Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
There is only One. And the One is found by the True Guru's grace — a gift that is always here, waiting for an open heart.
Turn toward the good, O my mind, and you'll receive its sweet rewards.
Learn humbly from what's wise, and the empty, aching feeling lifts, and you're wrapped in joy.
This is a Partaal — a lively, rhythm-shifting form, fitting for the dance raag. The rahao: "serve the Lord and receive the fruits... receive the dust of the Guru's feet. All poverty will be eliminated... you shall be enraptured." The keynote is the repeated nihaal — "blissful, blissful, blissful" — sheer delight. For a child: turn toward the good, learn humbly, and the empty feeling lifts as joy pours in.
What fills you with delight when it finally arrives?
